black tape

[justinc]

On 240sx there is a black tape that goes around the body how do you get that off?

It takes alot of patience and a blow dryer and it will just peel off... slowly...

yea, it will come out nice. &nbsp;Do you take the small strip on the upper part of the door running down the side come off like that too?<img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>??

Yup, it comes off the same way. I took both of those black stripes off my car.

Exactly where is this 'other' strip of tape....are ya'll talking about the pin stripe?

[West]

Yes the Pin Stipe and the black stripe that is at the bottom of the car all the way around.

Notice in the picture my car dosent have either of these on my car because I removed them <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

I've been thinking about taking these off, but didn't know if the pin stripe would come off...I guess I'm good to go now <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>. &nbsp;thanks

Ok, now that I got the tape and pin stripes off, what can I use to get that sticky, residual gook off.

You can use stuff called &quot;Goof Off.&quot; &nbsp;It comes in a yellow can with red lettering and should be in the paint department at your local hardware store. &nbsp;If there's a Lowe's near you, they carry it. &nbsp;It was the only way my boyfriend could remove the pinstripes from the 12-year-old Camaro (from a junkyard) he was rebuiding. &nbsp;If it worked on that, it should most definitely work on your car. &nbsp;Good luck!<img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Thanks Chick. &nbsp;I couldn't find the Goof Off but I found some stuff called Goo Gone (I'm guessing from the name similarity that one is a spin off of the other), and it worked pretty good.
